The announcement was made following a closed-door meeting at the Government House in Asaba, the state capital, on Wednesday.
The Governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Sir Festus Ahon, who confirmed the development, said the decision was reached after “wide consultations with political stakeholders and in the interest of Delta’s long-term development”.
